Challenge Beyond Immortality

Chapter 3: Final challenge


Alucard knew Integra could come home soon. He had to give up on the cookies for today. Tomorrow was another day. He sat in his room on the solitary chair sipping his blood packet. He had to impress Integra, he just had to. And besides that, he wanted more cookies. All he could think of were cookies Then, he had an idea. He could go to the supermarket and get some tips, and maybe add something more to the cookies. So he did.

Alucard walked down the bakery isle, he looked at all the different products. Then he spotted a booklet hanging on a chain in a shelf. 'Make Homemade Cookies from Nothing'. He read all about the ingredients he needed. He carefully picked everything out that was needed. He knew he would have trouble putting it all together, he snatched the booklet and hid it in his coat. Then he saw a tiny container with little round sugar sprinkles. He thought it would be great to add to the cookies. As he walked don the isle he saw many different mixes. He bought one of each, chocolate chip, chocolate, peanut butter, sugar, and M&M's. He could make a whole assortment of cookies!

Back at the manor, he stuffed the bags of cookie making products under his mattress. No one could see it. He smiled at the fact that now he knew he could make the wonderful cookies for his master and himself, and than some. He put the little booklet in the bags as well. Everything was going to be great. He thought that if he could make cookies, why he could make tons of sweets! Cupcakes, cakes, maybe even...pizza! (However pizza got in his head)

The next morning, he began setting everything up. He carefully followed what the booklet and boxes said. This time he remembered to put it in the oven. He patiently waited. He was just so proud of himself. Maybe it wasn't a challenge beyond immortality, maybe Integra was right, anyone could do it...with a little knowledge of how. Then he remembered Integra's birthday was only in a week. He pictured himself making her cookies and a big cake. His little cookie infatuation was getting more in depth, now it was just a baking obsession. Amazing what being dead for so many years can do to you.

*Beep*

His cookies were ready. A smile stretched across his face. He tried one of every kind. Perfect. He put them all in a large bowl and stood there, waiting for his master. He just had to hope for the best. That she would love his homemade cookies. But, he still thought her's were better. Most likely because, well, they were from Integra. He heard the door open. She started walking toward the kitchen...and went right past it. Alucard groaned and teleported himself to her room. H knew she'd be going there. He stood in front of the door, fairly close. Close enough that he would be the first thing she saw. Then the door opened. There was Integra.

"Hello Alucard." She said not looking at him just yet in her usual tone

then she noticed

"What's all this?" she peered into the bowl "Walter made us cookies. How dear."

"Master," his eye twitched "I made them for us."

She stood there for a moment

"You did? That's sweet. Alucard, why?" she was flattered

"We had so much fun that day. I never saw you laugh that much. I wanted to show you how much I enjoyed that night. I thought maybe we could do that again."

She was touched "I never expected this. You out did yourself."

"I did it all for you." he smirked

"No one ever did something like this for me. Alucard..." she softly gave him a kiss

Alucard almost fell over. A dream coming true. He just smiled. He put the bowl down on her night stand and sat on her bed. She was going to sit next to him, he put his arms on each side of her waist and pulled her on his lap. They began re-living that night just as he wanted. So it took cookies to bring them together.

Meanwhile..Walter was heading toward her room to go dust. That's when he heard the laughter and other sounds. He knew Alucard was in there with her, no one else was there. (A/n: Seras wasn't there yet) His eyes widened and he just walked passed. He couldn't believe that Integra fell for the vampire she had awoken and got THAT involved with him. He walked past. He thought,

"I hope he can't get her pregnant. I think I best never mention this." Poor Walter. If he only knew it was all thanks to cookies.

(I think I'm ending it here, if anyone wants me to continue and/or has an idea, review me. Thanks.)
